Synergos Rated Four Stars by Charity Navigator for Fiscal Management

In February, Charity Navigator, the United States' largest and most-used evaluator of nonprofit organizations, completed an evaluation of Synergos' financial systems and designated Synergos with four stars -- the highest rating. Charity Navigator's rating system examines two aspects of nonprofit organization's financial health: how responsibly it functions day to day as well as how well positioned it is to sustain its programs over time.

According to Charity Navigator's president, a four-star rating demonstrates Synergos':

"...ability to efficiently manage and grow its finances. Approximately a quarter of the charities we evaluate have received our highest rating, indicating that Synergos Institute outperforms the majority of nonprofits in America with respect to fiscal responsibility. This 'exceptional' designation from Charity Navigator differentiates Synergos from its peers and demonstrates to the public it is worthy of their trust."

In 2007, over four million people donors used the Charity Navigator service to obtain an unbiased, objective, numbers-based rating system of nonprofit organizations in the US.
